How to get the unique ID of an object?
You can use System.identityHashCode to get that id for any class. hashCode () method is not for providing a unique identifier for an object. It rather digests the object’s state (i.e. values of member fields) to a single integer.
How to implement value objects with no ID?
You can see how this value object implementation of Address has no identity and therefore, no ID field, neither at the Address class not even at the ValueObject class. Having no ID field in a class to be used by Entity Framework (EF) was not possible until EF Core 2.0, which greatly helps to implement better value objects with no ID.

If it’s a class that you can modify, you could declare a class variable static java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger nextInstanceId. (You’ll have to give it an initial value in the obvious way.)
How to store retrieved object in session and access it?
When something else in your application needs to access the User it can query the Hibernate session (using session.get (id)) passing in the primary key value stored in the HttpSession. You should use a 1-way hash to store passwords so that will change how you compare passwords.
Do you need IDs in your domain entities?
You don’t need Ids to operate your domain objects. In most cases, all you need is define equality members in the base entity class so that you could rewrite your code like this: Also, Ids in domain entities often indicate a hidden abstraction: In this example, Ids can be encapsulated in a separate entity:
Can a unique identifier be used to identify another user?
When a SID has been used as the unique identifier for a user or group, it can never be used again to identify another user or group. Each time a user signs in, the system creates an access token for that user. The access token contains the user’s SID, user rights, and the SIDs for any groups the user belongs to.
How are globally unique identifiers assigned in Active Directory?
